The Scratching Post Escape
A downloadable game for Windows
This game is made for the Jacksepticeye's game jam where the theme is "Death is an Opportunity".
The Scratching Post started as a a humble delivery service, but before long things got out of hand as they expanded into a corporation that sought to seize the means of production. Produce what? A bunch of lovely Lab Rats for the consumption and enjoyment of their fellow Cat. Leaving a population of Rats to savor the unsavory.
You play a Lab Rat created by the Scratching Post, given a single imperative by an Earwig agent of the Rat Rebellion to free all the Lab Rats.
This was our (Zaeem Farooqi and Musabbir Baki) very first game. We learned how to code and make this game in Godot within the five day period of the Jam. There are still a lot of silly little "features" that have to be ironed out, and many ideas that didn't make it past the chopping block, but we hope you enjoy it anyways.
